The Boy at the Top of the Mountain by John BoyneMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was so excited John Boyne came out with a new novel. While this books isn't emotionally as powerful as The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, it is thought provoking and heart-breaking. A young boy, Pierrot, becomes an orphan, and ends up being taken in by his Aunt Beatrix. She is a servant for a wealthy man during World War II. Pierrot finds out it is none other than Adolf Hitler. Pierrot is quickly liked by Hitler who takes him under his wing, and from that moment a young, innocent boy is changed forever.
